Don't eat meat at all.

Got rid of my pickup last year, my next vehicle will be a smaller 2 door car.
4. Choose an energy efficient home and appliances
Definitely, when I'm in the market.
5. Stop using pesticides
Don't really use any.
6. Walk, bike or take transit to regular destinations
I walk 15 mins and take the bus to get to work. I get my workout done by runnign hoem at teh end of the day.
7. Prepare your meals with locally produced food
Have to think about that, I do shop at Community Foods, a lot of their stock comes from Western Canada.
8. Choose a home close to regular destinations
No doubt, commuting 1 hour to work each way is my idea of hell. I'd rather continue rentign than live in the suberbs.
9. Support alternatives to the car
Well, I ride a motorbike in the Summer. Burns much less fuel than a car.
10. Get involved, stay informed
Trying to.
